3 Return to Fairchild Tropical Gardens

[Dale D]

I am very fortunate in living less than a 5 minute drive (actually walking distance) to the world famousFairchild Tropical Botanic Gardens. Fairchild is an 83-acre botanic garden with one the world's most extensive collections of rare and exotic tropical plants including palms, cycads, flowering trees, and vines. It is located in the city of Coral Gables, Miami-Dade County, just south of Miami.
Besides that, there is a controlled environment building housing butterflies.

This is a 3:38 minute video using the Mavic 3, DJI Mavic Osmo Action Pro 5, timelapse, and hyperlapse clips.Please view full screen. Comments always welcome.

Thanks. You have Florida Botanical Gardens! And all of those inlet and canals. A beautiful place to fly, I would imagine.

Yes, I'm lucky enough to have many great places to fly here. Just need to take the time between doctors visits..age is taking it toll. Had cataract surgery on both eyes last week so my vision won't be an excuse anymore..lol.

Cap KO:
This has nothing to do with drones, but I am an 89 y/o retired ophthalmologist, trained at Barnes Hospital in St. Louis and Bascom Palmer in Miami. I practiced 38 years in solo practice in Miami. I have had bilateral cataract surgery with implants too. Good result both eye, I still cannot find that drone sometimes.

Very nice tour of the Gardens, Dale. Beautifully shot and edited. Good music.
Have gators found their way to the waterways?

Beautiful scenery and nicely put together. I’m surprised the lens didn’t get all wet going through that water misting

Well Dale the usual high standard we've come to expect of you.
